Any SAK's available without blades? - 11/28/12 08:13 PM
I find the inclusion of knife blades on a SAK a waste of space for my needs. I always carry a seperate, better quality, more useful knife. The only SAK makers that I am aware of are Victorinox and Wenger, but neither of them make what I'm looking for that I can tell. And neither has any kind of "custom shop" where you can design your on SAK (that would be a very cool option to have IMHO!)
I don't really need a corkscrew either, never having found the need for an emergency bottle of wine. At least Victorinox has realized the idiocy of including this tool in 95% of their SAK's to some extent, by making a micro screwdriver insert that fits inside the coils, thus making the corkscrew somewhat useful (as a holder for an extra screwdriver).
An online "design and order your own customized SAK" would be a nice marketing opportunity I would think. Too bad nobody does it that I can determine.
Although I have a Leatherman Wave, amongst other multi-tools, I don't find them easy to carry (nor needed) on a day to day basis, and prefer the slimmer inside pocket carry profile of a SAK (without the "K" part, preferably!)
